Yasmeen Nazir (Shelley Kinh) admits that trade has been very slow and she’s had to turn the heating down in an effort to save money.

In the secure training centre, a group of lads make it clear to Max they intend to make his life hell.
Weatherfield residents were rocked earlier this month when Griff Reynolds (Michael Condron) and his extremist gang made a thwarted attempt to set off a bomb at the community’s Peace Market.
Max had spent weeks aligning himself with the group but raised the alarm at the last minute when he realised what they had planned.
Speaking about the storyline, producer Iain MacLeod previous told press: “It will reach its climax in the first couple of months of the year.
“Max has well and truly been red pilled and even more estranged from his family than he has been.
“This leads him into extremely dangerous territory.”
“There is hope for Max. He will over the course of 2023 realise the error of his ways.”
Coronation Street airs Monday, Wednesday and Friday on ITV at 8pm
